Absolutely not. Buying Pokemon card packs is more akin to buying a mystery box. You know you'll get cards out of it, just not which ones. It's part of collecting - the surprise and excitement of finding out what you got!

Kinda feels like gambling to me. You spend money hoping for a rare card, doesn't that sound familiar? Still, whether it's 'gambling' or not, it's undeniably addictive.

Nah, Pokemon card packs aren't really gambling in the traditional sense. You're guaranteed to get something in each pack, unlike gambling where you could walk away with nothing. It's more about the thrill of the hunt for rare cards! Plus, you can actually use these cards to play the Pokemon TCG, so they're not just for collecting. It's like a fun bonus to the game.

Nope, calling it 'gambling' is a stretch. Kids and adults buy these packs for the love of the game and collecting. Rare finds are just the cherry on top!
